One of the most notable reasons for purchasing used car parts is the money you can save. Used parts are typically significantly less expensive than brand-new car parts. Especially for older cars, buying used parts makes the most economic sense.
Because shops typically test used parts prior to selling them, you can feel confident knowing the part is capable of properly serving your car. And, because reputable salvage yards sell their parts with limited warranties, you can rest assured your part will work correctly or you’ll get your money back.
Reliability
Our experts evaluate our selection of parts to ensure they are safe for use and have usable life left in them. Although you may have heard or read that using used vehicle parts to perform repairs is always an unsafe and risky bet, that’s a common misconception. Properly extracted and tested used car parts are perfectly reliable for you and your vehicle.
Eco-Friendly
Reusing materials such as steel and plastic can reduce the number of environment-harming resources you need to use to repair your vehicle. Because these materials are included in many car parts, reusing these types of parts can cut down on the manufacturing of additional materials and, therefore, help reduce your environmental footprint.
OEM Parts Available at Affordable Prices
When it comes to replacing a damaged car part, you likely know you can order new parts online at a discount. But those parts are aftermarket parts, and it can be tough to determine the quality of such parts since there are so many manufacturers that build low-quality parts on the cheap. They might look nice on the outside, but they’re often poorly made and may put the functionality of your vehicle or your safety at risk. OEM stands for original equipment manufacturer and means that the part was created by the manufacturer that originally created the part for the brand-new vehicle. In most cases, the part is the originally installed component and was pulled directly from the vehicle when it arrived at the yard.
